Brian Ellis’s Yesterday Won’t Goodbye is a punk rock Americana road trip that feels like a cracked-open diary and a loud guitar riff all at once.
Blending real-life stories with wild, inventive language, Ellis turns his experiences into poems that refuse to sit still. These poems don’t follow the rules—they kick the door open, invite you inside, and make you want to stay forever.
We need not seek catastrophe. The dystopia we asked for was coming for us all along.
